Wow, I feel like a weakling compared to you oddballs. I sleep about 9 hours average, with a record of 16 hours. The longest no-sleep-straight was 36 hours, which seems to pale in comparison to you wierdos.
I don't know how anyone can live on 4 hours of sleep a day. After 3 days of that, I felt big-time hallucinations. Interestingly enough, I think that loosened my sense of reality or something, 'cause now I get hallucinations if I stay up for only 24 hours in a row.
By the way, when you people mean hallucinations, how much interaction is there? Because I find myself having conversations with people who aren't there, and I don't think that's normal.
But again, my record feels small now thanks to you people. However, I knew someone at the cannery with ADHD, so he got 0-2 (2 more often)hours of sleep for like...2 weeks in a row. He was kinda funny.
P.S. How normal is this: I've seen the words on a comp. game begin to contort and change colors......turned out the game didn't HAVE any words! This was while walking around in Morrowind, then shortly after, I could swear the NPC's in the Mages' Guild started dancing. What kind of things do you people see in your hallucinations?
P.P.S. I disagree Gandalf. Although I will gladly sleep in 'till 11 A.M. if allowed, when my alarm goes off at 7 A.M., I leap outta bed to push the "button to make the noise stop", and my mind is gone for a while. But that's little, considering I used to wake up at 3:30 A.M., and I did NOT want to do that. And if it matters, I've never pressed that "Snooze" button.
